FWIW
I was responsible for the Mini BIW from about '96 'til 2001(ish). I really wish I'd taken photos of the faces of the BMW guys when we showed them how the cars were built. Happy days.

I love these videos and I understand how much work goes in to all the modifications other commitments etc, but now it seems like they are stringing it out a bit

Great stuff as usual.
They should have got this pair to present Top Gear, would be infinitely better than the muppets they went with! Rolling Eyes

Given how long it took them to make a bracket, in the latest episode, I won't be holding my breath. Wink

I love Project Binky the best Car build on YouTube I think.

Hear are some other of my favs...

Tarvarish's Twin Turbo Lambo, bought as a fire damaged wreck. I like this guy as he isn't a expert it shows you how much you can do at home.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n_KFt0Uk2V0&list=PLrvMJaD0-Pucbcer_w_wLYYE3o2X3GecT&index=41


Deboss Garage's Quad Turbo Quattro Race Car, It's built on a budget and is mostly made from scrap.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HzUdXReYdMw&list=PLYbEYVyB_NH_CXq91HYMYfuEC6CNy8wDR&index=1

Tom's Turbo Garage LS Swap MX5, It's a cool car and he seems like a really nice guy.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gDMrJhpeYiE&list=PLaeETZPdShsN8XtwhDKS-iVJZ38lKFKI9


Might Car Mods' RB26 240z & Gramps/Super Gramps, I love MCM the guys are really funny and they make interesting cars I love both of these, and would love to own either.

Not sure why I ignored this thread for so long. What a great series!

Anyone reading this thread who hasn't watched it, should wait. Project completion is probably 1-2 years away..!

This is all very excellent, more addictive than Breaking Bad.
When I was 18, a friend and I had joint custody of an orange 850. Into which we dropped a 1256 GT lump.
It looked very ordinary but it went like a bastard!

I'm so grateful for these videos. The content is so much better than other any car related tv programmes.

I just wish I could be more patient..

If I won the Lottery I'd throw money at them to make me an E-type with a Modern 5l Jag supercharged engine and all modern brakes and suspension and film it.

Would you be willing to wait about 10 years for it though?



It just seems like they are stringing it out now

IMO, it's because they're, obviously, enjoying what they're doing, they're very good at what they're doing and probably couldn't care less whether the majority of the population like, or care what they're doing.
All of which is the complete, polar, opposite of the utter dross that's produced by mainstream TV, which caters for the lowest common denominator while ticking every "inclusive" and "PC" box along the way!

Or they’re doing it in their free time at the weekends, as well as doing their full time engineering jobs in order to continue paying the bills...

So you're saying they aren't making a single penny on these videos?
What about all the people who've donated or buying their merchandise?

In 3 days it'll be 5 years since the first episode was posted.... only 5 years, and how close to completion is it?

No wonder they were told it couldn't be done.... it'll probably take another 3-4 years to complete at the rate they are going Rolling Eyes
